Inspired by Nicole’s post about organic play-doh, I looked for another alternative play-doh option and found gluten-free Eco-dough, an organic play-doh colored with vegetable dyes. This extra-super-duper nontoxic play dough is from a California-based small business and is packaged in compostable containers. I know that a lot of parents worry about their gluten-allergic kids eating play-doh (dough is flour-based, after all), so it’s useful to know that Eco-dough offers a regular play-doh as well as a gluten-free play-doh option for kids with gluten allergies.
Add a few drops of olive oil if the dough dries out, and it’s ready to smoosh again.
The Eco-dough goody bag ($8) would make a fun party favor or a thoughtful add-on to a birthday gift. More info on the product line at Eco Kids USA, or buy a tube of Eco-dough for $22 at Amazon.
